From tiny seeds do future dinners grow

… do future dinners grow. Not much gets sown till late February, but this weekend we have sown the T and M packet of mixed aubergines, some green globe artichoke and a packet of braod beans jubilie hysore. All from thompson and Morgan and all in modules in a heated propagator.
It crossed my mind that this year, I may not have to sow everything into a module and plant out when getting established, as we no longer have such thick clay. Although we had raised beds, drainage was still a problem, and clay is cold for so long, and slugs so rampant, that all module was the only way.
We missed the autumn sowing of the broad beans though, so these will be our catch ups. Another packet will get sown outside towards the end of Feb.
